I ran into a stranger

I ran into a stranger as he passed by, "Oh, excuse me Please" was my reply.

He said, "Please excuse me too; Wasn't even watching for you."

We were very polite, this stranger and I.

We went on our way and we said good-bye.

But at home a different story is told,

How we treat our loved ones, young and old.

Later that day, cooking the evening meal,

My daughter stood beside me very still.

When I turned, I nearly knocked her down.

"Move out of the way," I said with a frown.

She walked away, her little heart was broken. I didn't realize how harshly I'd spoken.

While I lay awake in bed,

God's still small voice came to me and said,

"While dealing with a stranger, common courtesy you use,

But the children you love, you seem to abuse.

Look on the kitchen floor,

You'll find some flowers there by the door.

Those are the flowers she brought for you.

She picked them herself: pink, yellow and blue.

She stood quietly not to spoil the surprise, and you never saw the tears in her eyes."

By this time, I felt very small, and now my tears began to fall.

I quietly went and knelt by her bed;

"Wake up, little girl, wake up," I said.

"Are these the flowers you picked for me?"

She smiled, "I found 'em, out by the tree.

I picked 'em because they're pretty like you.

I knew you'd like 'em, especially the blue."

I said, "Daughter, I'm sorry for the way I acted today;

I shouldn't have yelled at you that way."

She said, "Oh, Mom, that's okay. I love you anyway."

I said, "Daughter, I love you too, and I do like the flowers, especially the blue."

Are you aware that: If we die tomorrow, the company that we are working for could

easily replace us in a matter of days. But the family we left behind will feel the loss for the rest of their lives. And come to think of it, we pour ourselves more into work than to our family --an unwise investment indeed.

So what is behind the story?

You know what is the full word of family?

FAMILY= (F)ATHER (A)ND (M)OTHER, (I) (L)OVE (Y)OU!

Isn't that neat? 

Fill life with love and bravery and we shall live a life uncommon.

Don't just exist, Live Magnificently - Change is the law.

The Why of Facebook Likes

People say that there's a reason for everything, and in some cases there are three reasons. An example that comes to mind is:

"There are 3 reasons a person doesn't text you back. You've said something which upset them, you're starting to get boring or they've fallen asleep."

Like most people, I spend 5% of my time in Facebook replying comments or writing statuses, and 95% observing. Observing what people do, write and what they 'like', which then led me to notice the three reason they 'Like' things. And by things I mean status updates, wall posts and their comments. Fan pages, sixbillionsecrets, LGMH and others are too wide a scope to cover shall be left for another discussion.

Reasons

1.They like the stuff which they have just read. Its as simple as that. It is the most acceptable and common use of the 'Like' feature.

2. They have no idea of how to reply to a comment in an appropriate way without creating an awkward situation. If they decide to not reply however, they might come across as snobbish. So they "Like" the comment with the hope that it will accepted as a passable form of response.

"Wtf is he saying??Whatever.. *Like*."

3. They are trying to get the attention of someone, usually a member of the opposite sex. They do this by going to their target(most likely a crush or someone they're trying to lure into bed)'s profile and "Like" the hell out of every status, photos, posts that they could find. It doesn't matter if they really like it or not. They seem to be under the illusion that the more they 'Like', the closer they are getting to the person. They think that they are merely indicating their presence, their creepy almost bordering on stalking presence to this person. This method does occasionally work but when it doesnt, which is most of the time, it leaves an impression something similar to this:

"HEYY!!LOOK AT ME!! IM HERE!!"

Question before we move on.. Would you post something you hate or don't like as your status or comment?

There is however, a type of "Like" which deserves special mention. I hate to say this out because a lot of my close friends are guilty of this. I've failed to understand why they do it. The people that i've asked about it also fails to explain it. The people who does it, im sorry to say FAILS!! They are people who "Likes" their own posts and comments. None of the three reasons above can justify it. Before everyone starts screaming No !!!, please think of the answer to the question above. It is shameless and pathetic really. Its like high-fiving yourself in public. Even the ones who like their own status can sometimes be accepted. People who like their own comments.. Fail.

May the fail be with you..

p/s: I look forward to people liking this post.. ;)

Why Butter is more Appreciated than Jam?

1.An eighty year old man in an old Datsun car driving at the speed of 20 KM/h on a 80 KM/h road.

-    On the road, age is not an excuse to cause a jam. If you are 80 year old man you can still press hard on the accelerator. As a result, you can see middle fingers flying in the air at the poor old man.

2.A lorry carrying hundreds of tonnes of logs crawling up a steep hilly road.

-    The lorry driver might be having a good time with some fags while the drivers behind have already finished cursing his seventh generation.

-    ‘Kenderaan Berat sila ikut kiri’

3.Width of the emergency lane on a highway is smaller than a bus that is parked on it with no apparent reason. (Bus is to be blamed not the emergency lane.)

-    They are just a waste of space because they eat up lanes.

4.A police road block on a main road at the midst of a festive season.

- “Duit raya sapa mau kasi?”

- I think you readers understand better about road blocks.

5.A lady having a sweet time on a road.

-    A driver behind her muttered ‘ Why on earth she is so slow?’ – There were some vulgarities in the sentence and we have to censor it. I know you know but what to do.

6.Tapah is the famous R&R which becomes pit stop for west coast Malaysians and the best part is, during festive season although everyone knows it will be packed but still some try their luck.

-    Tapah R & R has become a tourist attraction spot and should be listed in Cuti-Cuti Malaysia.

7.The Malaysian bottleneck effect by Datuk Samy.

-    Three lanes squeezing into one single lane just like forcing yourself to defecate.

8.An accident on the opposite side of the road but the jam is on the other.

-    Every Malaysians need to catch a glimpse of the accident without failing to notice the vehicle’s number plate – ‘manyak ong wor’

9.Two tolls in a freaking short distance which is less than a kilometer (eg. Kajang Toll)

10.     The Malaysian Mentality

-    Jam is another culture in our country ( 1 Malaysia).

In a nut shell, butter is more appreciated and always better than jam

DRIVE COURTEOUSLY, SAVE SOULS

Rape Victims - The Fallen Angels

One of the things that my mind or heart can't accept is rape. I just hate rapists and I wish there will be punitive punishments for rapists. I hope in the near future, rapists will have their parts cut and tattooed rapist on their fore head and let them live among the community. That just my angry part of my self towards rapists.

Well, today we will talk about not how to avoid rape but what you need to do and overcome the trauma after the dark incident. I will like to address the rape victims as the fallen angels in this post. Dear fallen angels I will like to say this all of you, just remember you guys are not all alone. You have us - the better community.

Here We go:

A: GET HELP IMMEDIATELY -  Even if there is not a scratch on your body, rape is an extremely serious trauma and a deep injustice. No one should go through the trauma of rape alone. You're probably going to need many kinds of help for at least a couple of months from friends, associates, and professionals. You deserve all the help you need, no matter what the circumstances of the rape.

A common problem for rape victims is that it's very difficult to ask for help because the rape has made them feel ashamed, weak, and wounded. If you're finding it difficult to ask for help, here's what to do. Pick a special friend and ask that friend to help you find more help. Ask that special friend to help you think of other people who would be good for different kinds of help. Ask your friend to make the phone calls for you.

B: ALWAYS HAVE SOME ACCOMPANY YOU - Whoever you want to meet with regards to the dark incident; let it be the detective, counselor, family members, friends etc. In fact it is a good idea to have someone beside you when you are making phone calls. Don't be alone in any circumstances. Be accompanied.


C: GET YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED ASAP - The longer the time taken to get answers for your question it make your anxiety level high and gets you more depressed. Throughout the dealing of your dark incident, ask whatever questions that runs on your mind and don't feel ashamed. You have all the rights and if the person is negligent call the person's boss and get things sought out. Don't Be SHY!!!


D: TELL YOUR PART CLEARLY - Whenever you make phone calls there is tendency it is answered by automated phone system, don't hesitate leave a message clearly on whatever you wanted to say. Always prepare summary of your case whenever you want to talk to the authorities. The intense emotions you feel following a rape can overtake you unpredictably, especially when you are talking with others about the assault. When this happens your communication can easily become fragmented, frantic, and incoherent. So prepare yourself what you want to say so that it helps the authority to build up a good case. Always keep a note book, write down what you wanted to ask and what people answered so that you remember. This will help you to stay focused throughout the ordeal.


E: NEVER MAKE DECISIONS ON THE SPOT - Always take time to give your decision, consult with your attorney or a friend before you make decision. You may never know how it might affect you later on. Always be cautious when it comes to making decisions. Wrong move can make you more traumatized.


Lastly, Remember you are not alone and do a little favor by making a police report and saving other women's pride. We stand against rape, mean while we do our best to help the fallen angels.


“By not coming forward (about rape), you make yourself a victim forever”

God Bless Us!!!!
